DalilSENSE: Wearable AI for Real-Time Situational Awareness for Blind and Low Vision Individuals (QRDI - UREP)
DalilSENSE aims to develop a wearable AI-powered device that provides real-time situational awareness for Blind and Low Vision individuals in complex indoor environments. It combines low-resolution thermal and event-based sensing with multimodal machine learning to detect obstacles, human movement, and environmental features. Lightweight language models translate these insights into intuitive spoken descriptions, with on-device processing designed to protect privacy and operate without cloud connectivity.
